Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake have been spotted getting cozy a lot lately, but the actress won't confirm their relationship status.

"A girl doesn't kiss and tell," Biel says in the December issue of Elle.

But Biel, 29, does admit that she has a habit of dating actors.

"I think [actors] are the people you meet and so it just kind of happens," she explains. "Let me tell you: It never happens on purpose."

While it's uncertain what the future holds for Biel and Timberlake, who split in May, the actress does plan on having kids.

"I think probably at some point it would be something I'm interested in. But I don't feel pressured," Biel admits. "I was never one of those girls who dreamt of my wedding and my Prince Charming."

"To piss off my mom, I used to say, 'I'm never having kids, and I'm going to be a fabulously rich old maid living in a house with cute butlers and dogs.' "

While it's hard to imagine the stunning actress as an old maid, even Biel gets rejected from time to time.

When asked about the role that got away, she reveals she wanted to land the lead in The Notebook "so badly."

"I was in the middle of shooting Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and I auditioned with Ryan Gosling in my trailer – covered in blood," she adds. "But there's a million that get away. We're gluttons for punishment. It's just rejection."
